Re: Bitmain's Released Antminer S9, World's First 16nm Miner Ready to Order
Thank you guys for shareing your experience. For me the problems started with the autotune models and I can only speak out of personal experience. From my point of view, if the autotune software burns chips, it doesn't do its job good.
Agreed. There should be an underclock option.
Well, apparently we seem to get this option by doing the HagssFIN hack - if we dare
Did somebody?There use to be such high demand for manual control ability with autotune S9 models, but now, has someone tried my method with S9?
I've done this successfully to my two R4s.

This is also S9 related, so I thought to share this here as well.
If there is someone with a desire for non-autotune settings, be brave and please report if you get same results as I had

Well, this is an interesting find and I thought I'll share it with you. 
I had a problem booting my Antminer R4 8.0 Th/s, batch 2, autotune-model.
So I went looking in here:
Bitmain.com: Three Ways to Restore Factory Settings (R4/S9/T9)
https://enforum.bitmain.com/bbs/topics/3957
I used the last option in the list, IP Reporter button restore.
My miner restored with firmware Aug. 9 2016 and autotune settings were gone.
I am now suddenly able to control frequency and custom fan settings.
This was not my original problem, but I'm happy with it.
My original problem was that the miner jammed somehow in the booting process and didn't even show up in my router ip list.

Quote from: Bitmain
Usage: Please power off the miner, then hold down the IP Reporter and dont release it. At the same time, please power on the miner.
Releasing the IP Reporter after 5 seconds, the machine will automatically restore factory settings.
